Debian packages of Wine

Hi Maurilio,

I see you've taken over building Lenny packages of Wine. Good work; at
least now there are *some* updated packages available.

I talked to Scott a while ago about taking over from him for all
Debian package building. I have an automated build environment that
builds packages for all variations from etch/i386 to sid/amd64 (even
the very annoying-to-bulid-Wine-for etch/amd64). The one thing that
was stopping me from fully taking over from Scott was I don't have the
resources to host the packages.

So I'm wondering the following:
1) Do you think it's worth supporting Etch? (I argue yes, because it's
still stable)
2) Are you interested in hosting my Etch and Sid packages?
3) I'm clueless as to how to correctly set up a repository, so all I
have at the moment are the raw packages. Would you or Scott be able to
help out with this?

Thanks,
Ben
